The new Year.

Once more the sun has run HE
annual course, and returned to the
point at which a New Year Is ush-
cred into existence. During the
one that has passed each one Of us
may, by retrospection, see many
mistakes that we have made dur
ing Its passage.
Broken resolutions, neglected OPP
portunities and wrecked hopes are
scattered all along our pathway
through the year just gone. Good
fortune has smiled upon some and
disaster overtaken others, and to-
day we all stand on the threshold
of the te,c year with hearts buoyed
by hope, or depressed by forebo-
dings.
The year 1887, with its joys and
sorrows, its successes and disasters,
have become matters Of history,
and our thoughts, plans and ell
deavors, together with our mental
and physical powers, belong to the
future, and our success and con-
tentment will, in a great measure,
depend on our usefulness and help
fulness to the community in which
we live.
No man can live to and for him
self alone. If he is successful in
business that success contributes to
the welfare of the whole community,
or if his honest endeavors meet
with disaster, the whole neighbOr-
hood feels the shock.
We have no patience with those
who make grumbling at the pros
perity of their neighbors the chief
vocation of their lives. AS rule
they, who by their persevering en-
ergy, achieve success are those who
deserve it.
The failure of the business men
of your town or community would
add no wealth to your estate, while
their success contributes to your
welfare.
Then laying aside everything
that would engender strife and dis
cord let us offer our hand to all and
on this New Year day, wish all our
business men, merchants, mannfac-
turers, mechanics and laborers,
each a happy and prosperous year,
and then let us each labor to make
success certain for all, feeling as
sured that by SO doing we shall ad-
vance our own interests.
Therefore The DEMOCRAT begins
this year of our Lord, 1888, by wish
ing all its readers, and the whole
community, a peaceful, prosperous
and Happy New Year.

ALL that was mortal of Daniel
Manning, pubiicist and fnancier,
WAS laid to rest Tuesday. To few
Aaen has it been given at the time
Of their death to be regretted so
deeply and eulogized so warmly as
Mr.. Manning has been even by
those with whom he was politically
:at variance. This is only another
evidence of the truth that in the
contemplation of personal worth
and public integrity the people rise
above all partisan considerations,
and that what is often taken to be
the expression of popular opinion
is but the echo of personal disap-
pointment or of slavish prejudice.

Mr.. Mannings Democracy.

While the tribute of the party
press to the late Daniel Manning's
sturdy Democracy are still current
it is we'll to recall just what Mr..
Manning's views were on the most
vital issue now before the country.
In his last report as Secretary of
the. Treasury the lamented Mr..
Manning said:
The taxes to be first remitted are
those which prevent or hinder the
sale Of our surplus products in for
eign markets. Their removal will
set capital in motion by the prom
ise of better returns, enlarge the
steady employment and increase
the annual income of many thou
sand wage-earners, whose prosper
ity will diffuse prosperity. These
taxes are the duties on raw mate
rials, and the most widely injurious
of them is the tax on raw WOOL
But the income of all the wage
earners in the United States can
be at once enlarged effectively.
certainly permanently, by reducing
the cost to them of the great neces-
sites of life. Our .water-tariff taxes
increase needlessly the cost of
clothing, shelter and food to every
family.
To the clalnor of the Old Whig
relics in. the Democratic party for
a repeal of the internal taxes Mr..
Manning replied:
Another proposal is to reduce
taxation by cutting down the tax
on whiskey, tobacco and beer and
remove the duty on sugar. No
body pays tax on tobacco except
the consumers of tobacco. They
are willing to pay for the luxury,
and they ask no relief. Any prob
able reduction of the tax on Whis-
key would be more likely to in
crease the revenue than to dimin-
ish 1t. The price of sugar has fall
en- to an exceedingly cheap rate
Our own sugar crop is so very
small part of the total amount of
sugar we consume that sugar ranks
pext to articles wholly produced
abroad, like tea and coffee, in suit
ability for taxation, on the ground
that its consumption is universal,
that the tax is easily and cheaply
collected, that the increased price
paid by the consumers is an uncon-
sidered trige, and that what is ia
ken from the taxpayers goes into
the Taxpayers treasury-not into a
few private bank accounts.
This is the Democratic doctrine,
attested by the traditions, the pol.
icy and the platforms of the party,

Mr.. Thurman very clearly ane

Mr.. Thurman very clearly and
COMPREHENSIVE says: accord
ing to the true theory, taxation is
a contribution to a common fund
to protect the lives and property of
all citizens from violence and dis
possession, and defend their social
and political rights against in
fringement and abridgement." He
declares it is not a proper function
of Government to impose taxes
with a view of comforting special
benefits upon a limited Glass;
This leads to a decision of the tar.
iff, and he expresses the opinion
that "there would long ago have
been a resolution against tariff tax
es, but for our State and municipal
Governments, and their system of
taxation" which is upon property,
and under it those who own least
pay least ; while tariff taxes are on
consumption, and not in proper
ton to the wealth of the taxpayer,
as the man of moderate means
with a large family pays more than
the misery millionaire with no
family at all.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1887-02-10

A bill has been introduced in
the Ohio House to prevent the
formation of pools to advance the
prices of the necessities of life
The bill provides that
It shall be unlawful for any
person, copartnership, or corpora
ton to combine or conspire with
others to lower or raise the price
of any article of food or raiment,
by forming a competition in the
natural supply and demand of any
such article; and whoever com
bines or conspires with another as
aforesaid, whether acting as agent
for others or upon his own ac-
count, shall be fined not less than
800 nor more than $4,000, or i'm
prisoned not less than thirty days
nor more than two years for each
offense, and any person, copart-
nership, or corporation participant
ing in any such combination or
conspiring to cause an unnatural
price of any such article shall for
felt all legal rights to collect any
debt contracted by the sale of such
article at such unnatural price"

his position during the dark days
of the republic and lined his peck.
cts with lucre wrung from the peo-
pie as a wal necessity. "Honest
john" forsooth!
